Students lend a hand in park cleanup

Students from Roberts Creek Elementary have been helping as part of a joint cleanup of invasive plants by Dianne Sanford, of the Seagrass Conservation Working Group, BC Parks, and some of the students’ parents at Roberts Creek Provincial Park Picnic Site. This group was clearing vegetation Feb. 10.The objective is to enhance and restore native near-shore riparian vegetation “which provides shoreline stability and habitat and food for terrestrial invertebrates that in turn feed migrating juvenile salmon.” Rik Jespersen photo
